Deconstructivism in architecture, also called deconstruction, is a development of postmodern architecture that began in the late 1980s.
In addition to Oppositions, another text that separated deconstructivism from the fray of modernism and postmodernism was the publication of Robert Venturi's Complexity and Contradiction in architecture (1966).
The difference between criticality in deconstructivism and criticality in critical regionalism, is that critical regionalism reduces the overall level of complexity involved and maintains a clearer analysis while attempting to reconcile modernist architecture with local differences.

Deconstructivism in architecture, also called deconstruction, is a development of postmodern architecture that began in the late 1980s.

 Ideological Perspectives on Postmodernism: Origins, Agenda, and Implications
Deconstructivism is often seen with puzzlement, or dismissed as "nutty" or "stupid".
Caputo summarizes the moral-political agenda of deconstructivism, which in its opposition to western-traditional authority and cultural unity, parallels that of the Frankfurt School.
This basic agenda of deconstructivism can be readily seen to be that of postmodernism as well, the demolition of western authority structures capable of bestowing organic unity on a community of any sort - social, ethnic, political, religious - and with it of bestowing this sense of "otherness" on those who fall outside the community.

And it is this intimacy of the inhabitant with his home which must necessarily exclude all dominance of the tragic and the catastrophic from architecture.
While this may appear self-evident, architectural deconstructivism is a tendency in design that confuses literature with architecture; a trend that, through an unbalancing and alienating plastic violence, wants to express the tragedy of our times through modern architecture.
Deconstructivism's breaking up of large building programs into a multiplicity of smaller fragments makes their buildings more approachable than the bland, scaleless and faceless bulks of routine modernism.

The characteristic theme of Sargeant’s[2] analysis of precapitalist deconstructivism is the role of the participant as reader.
If one examines surrealism, one is faced with a choice: either accept precapitalist deconstructivism or conclude that truth is elitist, but only if the premise of surrealism is valid; if that is not the case, Baudrillard’s model of neotextual dialectic theory is one of “conceptual materialism”, and thus part of the meaninglessness of art.
But the main theme of de Selby’s[9] essay on precapitalist deconstructivism is not modernism, as Foucault would have it, but premodernism.

 ArtandCulture Movement: Deconstructivism   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Emerging from the theoretical concerns of the past 25 years, Deconstructivism in architecture has very little to do with any given philosophy of design.
As originally conceptualized by the French philosopher Jacques Derrida, Deconstruction is a method of inquiry, not a philosophy in and of itself.
When seized by architects in the early 1970s, Deconstructivism provided a neat method to critique the supposedly unifying, and thereby totalizing and idealistic, project of the Modern movement.

 Urban Dictionary: deconstructivism
Rather than blithely accept the hipster paradigm that "cool" may be measured only by semantically null snobbery and arcane knowledge, the nicemodernists strive for a self-actualized understanding of what makes them happy.
Nicemodernists reject the negativity and self-denying deconstructivism spawned by the pervasive fear of the Cold War era in favor of a delightfully clever Weltanschauung of self-love.
Thus, there is no set style of dress or list of bands by which nicemodernists may be identified, but only an attitude of personal responsibility for one's own happiness.

 Okorokov V. B., "Methaphysics of epoch of trancendental thinking..." (introduction) - philosophy
This topologic «forms» notwithstanding they were discovered in mathematics already, in theory of thinking they appeared recently and were perceived by almost all of thinkers as space of «blind (and even infant) game» with words, expressions and sciences, which does not have ground beneath.
Such notion of deconstructivism philosophers have, as it could destroy reasonable field of thinking, and as consequence, it leaves field of thinking without any process in future.
Deconstructivism is one of attempts to answer this question, because in this philosophic system not classic (linear) thinking is being analysed, but modern (non-linear topologic) one, which sees only «shape», but it’s tangent differentiation as well.

It was displaced by Deconstructivism, in which the pattern that Post-Modernism had established of using a polemic to explain and promote both built and unbuilt work was repeated with a subtle twist.
In 1988, a seminal exhibition, Deconstructivism Architecture, curated by Mark Wigley and Philip Johnson - who effected his shift of loyalty from Post-Modernism as easily as he had formerly abandoned Modernism - was held at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
Similarly, Deconstructivism sought to challenge the values of 'harmony, unity, and stability', and proposed the view that 'the flaws are intrinsic to the structure'.

 JABET » Connecting Deconstructivism, Direct Learning and Connectivism
This is another post on my views on the EdTechTalk discussion (audio here and transcript here) recently between Stephen Downes and George Seimens about (among other things) views on objective and subjective knowledge and its impact on teaching (transfer of knowledge vs. connective learning).
So while Stephen makes a simple, elegant case that objective knowledge does not exist, and that considering any knowledge to be objective creates bad teaching practices, I would suggest that objective knowledge does exist, and that if handled responsibly, it can have powerful positive impacts, and possibly even contribute to connective learning.
Math, as it applies to the world, involves a process of naming and categorizing that is subjective.
